What do operator overloading allows in C++?

  1. Memory management

  2. Syntactic variety for using types

  3. Creation of new operators

  4. Faster execution of operations

The correct answer is: Syntactic variety for using types

Operator overloading in C++ allows for syntactic variety when using types which means that we can use a single operator to perform operation on different data types. This means that we do not need to write separate functions for each data type. Option A is incorrect because memory management is related to the allocation and deallocation of memory and is not related to operator overloading. Option C is incorrect because operator overloading does not create new operators, it only allows us to use operators in a different way for different types. Option D is incorrect because operator overloading does not affect the speed of execution of operations.
